LEE R. DONOVAN, OF MARYSVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA.

SHADE-BRACKET.

Application led May 14, 1912.

To all whom @'25 may concern.'

Be it known that I, LEE R. DONOVAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Marysville, in the county of Ferry and State of Pennsylvania, have invented new and useful Tmprovements in Shade-Brackets, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to shade brackets, which are adjustable and the objects of the same are; first, to provide a device of the above nature which affords facilities for obtaining its proper adjustment for engagement with curtain poles of diierent lengths; seco-nd, a device of this nature which will be attractive in appearance and perform its functions in an efficient and reliable manner; third, one whi-ch can be easily manufactured and placed upon the market at a very small cost.

`With the above and other objects in view, my invention relates to such details of construction and in the arrangement and combination of parts as will be hereinafter more. fully described and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.

In describing` my invention in detail reference will be had to the acco-mpanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views and in which:

Figure 1, is a longitudinal sectional view of my invention. Fig. 2, is a plan view thereof showing parts of the section. Fig. 3, is a cross sectional view taken on line 3, 3, Fig. 1. Fig. t, is a fragmentary View of a portion thereof.

rlhe tubular member 1, sleeves 2 and arms 3 constitute the body portion of my invention, the sleeves being held in telescopic engagement with the tubular member 1 through the medium of the slots 4 and projections 5, while the arms slide within the sleeves and are held in place through the medium of the recesses 6, and lugs 7 EX- tensions 8, are formed upon the arms 3, thereby forming shoulders 9 and 10 as shown, the shoulders 10 having in engagement therewith substantially L- shaped brackets 11, the said brackets being secured to the extensions by the set screws 12. As is usually the case one of the brackets is provided with a cut out portion 13, while the other has an opening 14 formed therethrough. By this arrangement the removal and attachment of the curtain pole is greatly facilitated.

Specification of Letters Patent.

ser-iai No. 697,211.

For the purpose of supporting the brackets upon the window frame the members 15, are provided which are enlarged at their upper ends as shown at 1G and provided with openings 17 and lugs 1S, whereby they are made capable of receiving the extensions 3 of the arms 3.

The greatest of stress is laid upon the simplicity and eiiiciency of my invention and it is thought that the advantages and novel features of the same will be readily appreciated from the foregoing inclosure.

I desire it to be understood that I might make slight changes in arrangement and combination of parts without departing from the spirit of the same, provided such changes fall within scope of the sub-joined claims.
